I was updating my Wii to 4.1 when the power went out...

Now my Wii won't output any signal to the TV and my Wiimotes won't connect. It won't read any disc unless it's already inside. I googled it in hope of finding a solution to recover my Wii from it and found out about SaveMiiFrii which consists in pressing all 4 d-pad buttons while turning on the Wii.

This would boot the Wii into recovery mode and then all I would have to do is insert any Wii Game and it would automatically install the firmware update from it.

This is my Wii. It's as useless as a brick.

It didn't work and so, I've got no choice but to send it to Nintendo, again. First the artefact issue, then the kid who formatted my Wii, now this... Why does it all have to happen to me?

Then I'll have to get all my Friend Codes and my friends to add me again... what a pain...

I actually thought of taking it to GameStop. They don't check to see if the Console is working... at least that's what a friend of mine said.

Oh dear ... I'm so sorry about that! I hope you get it fixed soon.
In my case, my Wii doesn't seem to work sometimes when I use 480p Component Cables ... but I bought them from a third-party brand. Every time I boot up my Wii with them plugged in, it just shuts off so I'll probably just stick with my regular cables for now ... Have you tried using different cables for your TV?

Yep, I tried everything. I have to send it to repairs.
